SR-02 Thermal Measurement Guidelines
SR-02 7 Rebel LED 40mm Round Assembly
Overview
The SR-02 high brightness LED lighting assembly includes seven Rebel LEDs
soldered to our 40mm round CoolBase. The LEDs can be connected in series
or singly for full control of each LED making this assembly ideally suited for:
• Flashlights
• Bicycle Lights
• Dive Lights
• Lightsabers
• Spot lighting
• Task Lamps
• Color tuned lighting
• Fiber optic illuminators
• Accent lighting
The FR4 CoolBase features a highly efficient thermal design that matches or
outperforms* standard aluminium MCPCB bases. This can directly translate
into:
Features:
• LEDs can be configured
for series or single
operation
• Longer LED life
• Better color stability
• Reduced cooling requirements
The CoolBase makes it easy to mount the LED assembly a suitable heat
sink and to work with the assembly using standard bench top soldering and
hand tools.
A single Vishay NTC 10K Thermistor (NTHS0805N02N1002J) is mounted to
the board for continuous monitoring and foldback temperature control.
SR-02 assemblies can be ordered directly from our website at
www.luxeonstar.com/sr-02-7up.

Power Drivers
FlexBlock Wide Range DC Driver - Ideally suited for powering all 7 LEDs connected in series from
voltages a low as 10VDC.
BuckPuck/PowerPuck Drivers - Offers a variety of options for powering the SR-02 LEDs in parallel,
series or parallel/series configurations.
Secondary Optics
The SR-02 assembly is compatible with Khatod and Polymer 7 LED optics available from the Luxeon Star
LEDs website at:
www.luxeonstar.com/7-LED-Optics
Mounting & Cooling
Use of this assembly requires careful attention to mounting and cooling to ensure
that the junction temperature of the LEDs is kept well below the maximum rating as
specified in the LED documentation published by Philips Lumileds.
For optimal cooling, we recommend that the assembly be mounted to a suitable
heat sink (aluminum or copper) that is exposed to open air using a thermal interface
material such as our Bond-Ply© 100 pressure sensitive thermal tape or Arctic
Silver™ thermal adhesive. The bottom of the LED assembly is electrically neutral, so
it is not necessary to electrically isolate the LED base from the cooling surface.
Bottom View
The SR-02 has three mounting points for #4 screws. If you are using adhesive tape as a
thermal interface, then we recommend that the assembly also be fastened to the heat sink using
three mechanical fasteners. Before fastening the assembly to the heat sink, ensure that the two
mating surfaces are perfectly flat and clean in order to maximize heat transfer to the sink. Be careful
not to warp or distort the base by over tightening the fasteners.
You need to confirm that the assembly is being adequately cooled by testing the temperature of
each LED as described in the Measuring LED Junction Temperature section of this document.
Failure to ensure that LED junction temperatures are kept below their
maximum temperature rating will result in poor color rendering, early
degradation of light output, and premature LED failure!

To power all of the LEDs simultaneously (series operation), apply solder dots to the round series
configuration pads (J1-J6). Connect a suitable current regulating driver to pad 14 (+) and pad 1 (-) as
shown in Image 1.

Measuring LED Junction Temperature
The junction temperature of each LED on the assembly must be tested to be sure it is being adequately
cooled.
To make testing easy, each LED mounted on the SR-02 assembly includes a temperature test point that
can be used to determine the LED junction temperature using the following procedure.
Required Tools
• Digital Multimeter
• Temperature measurement meter
• Thermocouple or thermistor with kapton tape and/or thermal adhesive epoxy
- or • Hand held temperature measurement probe with a tip that is smaller than the
temperature test pad on the LED assembly.
Test Procedure
1. Enter the LED Typical Thermal Resistance Junction to Thermal Pad (°C/W) RθJ-C
value from the Rebel LED datasheet into box B in the formula on page 7 of this
document.
2. Ideally the temperature should be tested with the LED assembly mounted in the
location where it will be operated.
If the assembly will be in a difficult to reach location, then you will need to attach
a thermocouple or thermistor to the assembly using kapton tape or Arctic Silver™
Thermal Adhesive epoxy so that the tip of the sensor is in direct contact with the
temperature measurement point as shown in image 3. Be sure to allow the adhesive
to fully cure and cool before testing. If the assembly is easily accessible, then you
can use a hand held temperature probe to measure the test point temperature.
Ensure that the tip of
the temperature sensor
is in direct contact with
the test point pad.
Image 3
Apply a small amount of epoxy to
encapsulate the entire
tip of the
sensor.

3. If you are measuring the temperature with a hand held probe, hold the probe onto the
temperature test point for at least 1 minute after the LED assembly has reached its stable
operating temperature. (Image 5) Applying a small amount of OMEGATHERM© 201 High
Thermal Conductivity Paste, or heat sink thermal grease to the pad and probe tip will help
to ensure you get an accurate reading. (Image 6)
Ensure that the tip of the
temperature probe is in firm
contact with the test point pad.
Image 5
Thermal paste around the pad and
probe will help stabilize your temperature
reading.

4. Power up the LED assembly and allow the temperature to stabilize for at least 5
minutes.
5. After the temperature measurement has stabilized, note the test point temperature
and enter it in box A on page 7.
6. Measure the voltage across the LED you are testing (image 7) and note it in box C.

7. Enter the current you are powering the LED at in box D.

* For maximum LED life, color stability and reliability, the calculated junction
temperature must always be at or below the temperature shown in the Max Rec1
Junction Temp °C column of the specification table on page 8 of this document.
More information about this junction measurement technique can be found in the
LUXEON LED Thermal Measurement Application Brief (AB33) published by Philips
Lumileds.
9. If you are powering all of the LEDs in series and the assembly is mounted to the center
of a symmetrically shaped heat sink in open air, then it is typically only necessary to test
a single LED to determine the junction temperature of all the LEDs.
If you are powering the LEDs singly, or if the assembly is mounted to an unusually
shaped heat sink, or will be used in an unusual operating environment, then you
will need to test each LED to ensure that the junction temperature is below it’s safe
operating point.
Thermistor Temperature Measurement
Every SR-02 assembly includes a single Vishay NTC 10K Thermistor (NTHS0805N02N1002J) mounted
near the center of the board. This thermistor is intended for continuous monitoring of the assembly during
operation and can be used as part of a foldback temperature control circuit to ensure that the assembly
does not overheat.
The thermistor does not replace the need to ensure that each LED is being adequately cooled by using the
previously described test procedure. It is only intended to be used for in situ monitoring of the entire LED
assembly.
For details on how to measure the board temperature using the thermistor, please refer to our Onboard
Thermistor Temperature Measurement Application Note.
